Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this exploration of Matthew 6:9-13, Steve Gregg emphasizes the importance of understanding the main focus of prayer as the advancement and expansion of God's kingdom, rather than just praying for personal concerns. He reminds us that while Jesus introduced the kingdom to the world, there are still those who are not citizens of the kingdom and confirms that God's will is not always done on earth as it is in heaven. Gregg encourages Christians to strive for a sanctified and obedient life, as the progress made by individual Christians contributes to the advancement of God's kingdom on earth.
